#Receiving Credential Batches via OID4VCI

This guide shows you how to select offered credentials, request copies bound to different holder keys, and resume pending results with Wallet API v2.

OID4VCI delivers credentials from an issuer to a wallet. A target is one credential configuration and dataset; copies share that target but have explicit holder bindings.

#Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have:

• A running Wallet API v2, a wallet, two existing signing keys, and a writable credential store.
• A fresh credential-offer URL or protocol offer JSON. For the two-copy example, its issuer must advertise JWT proofs and a batch limit of at least two.

#Select Targets and Copies

Community Issuer2 accepts the original profileId body or the multi-offer credentials[] body at /issuer2/credential-offers. Both receipts contain credentialOffer. Pass that URL as offerUrl, or pass the resolved protocol offer object as offerJson; supply exactly one. The issuer management body is not a wallet request. Management profile IDs can differ from protocol configuration IDs.

First call POST /wallet/{walletId}/credentials/receive/resolve-offer/batch with the same offer source as the isolated resolve step. The response contains offer (the existing offer details) and batchSize. Use offer.credentialConfigurationIds for selections and check batchSize before requesting copies. An absent batch limit permits only one holder binding.

The wallet expands token authorization_details[].credential_identifiers into dataset targets. Do not invent identifiers or substitute profile IDs. If selecting a specific dataset, use an identifier actually granted by the issuer. Different configurations or datasets use separate requests; copies of one target use proofs.jwt. The advertised batch_credential_issuance.batch_size limits copies in each request, not the number of offer entries.

Omitting holderBindings defaults to one binding. Neither the issuer's limit nor the number of offered targets generates holder keys or requests extra copies. Obtain consent for the selections and copy count before receiving.

#Receive a Pre-Authorized Offer

Replace the offer, configuration ID, and key references below with values from your deployment. This example selects one configuration and requests two copies per granted dataset. Add txCode only when the resolved offer requires a separately delivered transaction code.

curl --fail-with-body -X 'POST' \
  'http://localhost:7006/wallet/{walletId}/credentials/receive' \
  -H 'accept: application/json' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
  "offerUrl": "{credentialOffer}",
  "credentials": [
    {
      "credentialConfigurationId": "{credentialConfigurationId}",
      "holderBindings": [
        {
          "keyId": "{holderKeyId1}"
        },
        {
          "keyId": "{holderKeyId2}"
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}'

{
  "credentialIds": [
    "{credentialId1}",
    "{credentialId2}"
  ],
  "deferredCredentials": []
}

#Receive an Authorization-Code Offer

Use a fresh authorization-code offer and call POST /wallet/{walletId}/credentials/receive/authorization-url/batch with this body:

{
  "offerUrl": "openid-credential-offer://?credential_offer_uri=...",
  "credentialConfigurationIds": ["identity_credential"],
  "clientId": "wallet-client",
  "redirectUri": "https://wallet.example.org/callback"
}

Select offered configuration IDs, or omit the list to authorize all offered configurations. For issuance without an offer, replace offerUrl with credentialIssuer and supply the configuration IDs. The response contains authorizationUrl, state, codeVerifier, credentialConfigurationIds, credentialIssuerBaseUrl, and optional nonceEndpoint. Keep the selected IDs, holder bindings, client/redirect values, state and verifier until the browser returns.

Authorization-code flows use authorization_details when the authorization server advertises openid_credential, otherwise the selected configurations' advertised scopes. They require one of these selectors. An offered pre-authorized code already authorizes its credentials; its token request uses supported selectors for narrowing but does not require them. The batch endpoint and retained sessions negotiate automatically; the separate single-configuration endpoint retains its useScope option.

Validate the callback destination, state, and any required authorization-server iss before accepting its code. Then call authorized below, using issuer endpoints from offer resolution. This call exchanges the code itself; do not first redeem it through exchange-code.

curl --fail-with-body -X 'POST' \
  'http://localhost:7006/wallet/{walletId}/credentials/receive/authorized/batch' \
  -H 'accept: application/json' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
  "code": "{validatedAuthorizationCode}",
  "codeVerifier": "{codeVerifier}",
  "clientId": "wallet-client",
  "redirectUri": "https://wallet.example.org/callback",
  "credentialIssuer": "{credentialIssuer}",
  "credentialEndpoint": "{credentialEndpoint}",
  "nonceEndpoint": "{nonceEndpoint}",
  "credentials": [
    {
      "credentialConfigurationId": "{credentialConfigurationId}",
      "holderBindings": [
        {
          "keyId": "{holderKeyId1}"
        },
        {
          "keyId": "{holderKeyId2}"
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}'

{
  "credentialIds": [
    "{credentialId1}",
    "{credentialId2}"
  ],
  "deferredCredentials": []
}

For DPoP deployments, keep the same wallet sender key throughout the flow and set useDpop: true on authorized receive. Copy holder keys do not replace the key that binds the access token.

#Keep Partial Results and Resume

Always inspect the response body. HTTP 200 can contain both stored credentials and deferred targets. HTTP 207 reports retained progress alongside a failure, including a local-save handle even if no credential was saved yet. Without retained progress, target proof failures use 422, issuer request/response failures use 502, and storage/observer failures use 500.

Keep credentialIds, deferredCredentials, and handles in storageOutcome.deferredCredentials. Deduplicate IDs: the top-level IDs cover the whole flow, while IDs inside storageOutcome cover the stopped batch. Batch responses use ReceiveCredentialsResult and its complete target list. Requests without explicit pre-authorized selections and the original /authorized endpoint retain the released successful ReceiveCredentialResult shape with deferredTransactionIds. If multiple deferred datasets cannot fit that map, the legacy HTTP boundary returns 409 with the complete detailed result and retained handles; do not redeem the grant again.

List retained handles after reconnecting:

curl --fail-with-body -X 'GET' \
  'http://localhost:7006/wallet/{walletId}/credentials/receive/deferred' \
  -H 'accept: application/json'

[
  {
    "id": "{deferredCredentialId}",
    "credentialConfigurationId": "{credentialConfigurationId}",
    "intervalSeconds": 5
  }
]

Resume each handle separately, without resending tokens or redeeming the grant again:

curl --fail-with-body -X 'POST' \
  'http://localhost:7006/wallet/{walletId}/credentials/receive/deferred/{deferredCredentialId}' \
  -H 'accept: application/json'

{
  "type": "stored",
  "sessionId": "{deferredCredentialId}",
  "credentialIds": [
    "{credentialId}"
  ]
}

An early resume returns deferred with the remaining wait and does not contact the issuer. Retained remote deadlines survive restart when persistence is configured. Local-save retries save only missing credentials from the already received response.

#Isolated Steps and Presentation

For a custom isolated flow, retain token authorization details and issue a separate request per granted dataset. Pass all holderBindings to sign-proof, then the returned proofJwt or proofs field to fetch-credential, together with the issuer's credentialIdentifier when present and credentialIssuerBaseUrl for batch-limit validation. When storeInWallet is true, pass the same holder bindings used for those proofs. Preserve the token type and DPoP sender-key context independently of holder keys.

A single signed proof retains the released {"proofJwt":"..."} response; multiple proofs use {"proofs":{"jwt":["...","..."]}}. Supply the returned proof field in the fetch request. Requests using only the original fetch/poll fields retain their original successful response bodies. Explicit batch fields select detailed progress; preserve deferred or local-save handles from any error body instead of repeating the issuer request.

For caller-managed deferred polling, preserve the original access token, sender key, holder bindings, proofRequired, and dataset identifier; respect the issuer's interval. If storage fails after receipt, resume the returned local-save handle instead of polling the issuer again.

The wallet matches received credentials to holder keys cryptographically, even when the response order differs. For presentation, select stored credential IDs and omit a signing-key override to use their retained holder associations.
